"Dark Valley Observing" is an act of observing people, things and
self. It varies from the very dark over charged feelings such as
"The Long Road To Nothingness" to the light hearted poems like
"Hello World." It also includes the romantic almost silly poems
like "Smiling?" to the self-contradictory poems like "Falling
Asleep, Falling Awake."
"Dark Valley Observing" shares one thing with Aladdin's first
collection "Blue Voice" that is meaning is a feeling which the
reader interprets. There is no pre-set agenda or pre-coded message.
Instead, it is a simple, straight and sometimes lengthy talking of
events, thoughts, reflections and imagery.
"Dark Valley Observing" also represents Aladdin's first attempts
to experiment with form. Aladdin uses capitalization, indentation
and mid sentence breaks to force a particular form of reading,
pauses and esthetic layout. Some of the poems attempt to please the
senses of sight and sound whilst others attempt to shock and force
the reader to think.
"Dark Valley Observing" expects you as a reader to take on each
poem and determine its meaning. It expects you to dress each poem
with your experience and reflect on that experience from the poem
as well as reflecting on the poem from your experience. "Dark
Valley Observing" is a book of poetry to be adopted by the
reader.
